A stout root of this kind is called a tap-root. The carrot is another example. 33. The leaves are long-petioled, net-veined, and in- dented on the edges. On each side of the petiole, at its junction with the stem, you will observe a little leaf-like attachment, to which the name stipule is given. The presence or absence of stipules is a point of some import- ance in plant-structure, and you will do well to notice it in your examinations.
